Black Gallery Frames: I already had from various stores. I filled them with Paris Post Cards (my hubby brought back from his business trip there) and De Vinci Sketches I printed off the computer.

The Blake Pendant is from Alice Lane. $625 ( normally $700 cuz I priced matched it with the one from CSN lighting. :)
I ordered an entyway rug also from Alice Lane but they sent me a brown one instead of the black graphic one I ordered. Such a bummer! But I will post that when it comes in the next 2 weeks.

Paint color: Driftwood Gray from Martha Stewart.

I still want to paint the orange on the railing black as well as the doors. But for now we are all painted out. :)

So tell me what do you think? Are you in Love with it as much as ME? It's fun to see things coming together that I have had in my head for so long. Seriously, forever ;)

It is so nice to finally have stuff come together in this room. Right now I am in the process of having this painting made for me to hang above the couch. Also with some new throw pillows and WHA LA! ( eventually I will buy some new furniture for this room) It's a slow process, what can I say :)

SO now on to pillows. #1

#2

or #3??

I just loved this painting from the July/August Lonny Issue. (This is where I pulled my inspiration for the room)

Paint color is Driftwood Gray by Martha S. I LOVE IT!! It makes the room feel so open and airy feeling.

Also took our black book shelf and painted it White. (Which I have been wanting to do for a long time)

Remember those suitcases, I have been talking about. :) Here they are!! Those were a Birthday present from a local consignment store. Which I think totally pop in the room, as well as my rug I scored on Overstock for $200.

I still have lots to do like hang pictures, and buy some chairs for the space. But I wanted so bad to give you guys an update on the house and color palette. So, tell me what are your thoughts??

Holy cow. Moving is a pain. But I am finally in a Home to call our OWN!! Yay! We are painting, painting, and more painting. But it is coming along and I promise pics will come as soon as I find our camera battery charger. Ugh. Some where in a box. :) Go figure.

Meanwhile. This kitchen belongs to the lovely Courtney Cox. Are you not just drooling over those bar stools like me? I want just one, to go in my computer/pantry nook. (you'll see ;) ) I found one similar at Anthropologie but they are like $360, ouch! Can't do that to the hubby, especially after dropping some coin at Alice Lane for a light fixture and an entry rug. They are both so pretty and can't wait to get them. They said it's gonna be 2-4 weeks. But, I am sure it will be well worth the wait. (hopefully)
